Jozy is a big lad, so people think he is a target man, but he does better when the ball is played along the ground. last night he has Stoke players hanging onto him all the time and the only service he received were punts up the pitch. Stoke players are better than they used to be when they have the ball, but they still resort to rugby tactics when they dont.

Anyway, Jozy divides opinions and arguing about it for the umpteenth time wont change opinions.


I dont think we played as badly as people are making out. We sat too far back once we scored, but overall I didnt think our play was too bad. The biggest difference between the team were the GKs imo. Mannone wont be scared about losing his place to Pantimilion anytime soon. How he missed the ball for the 1st goal I'll never know, and for the 2nd one he should of caught the bloody ball instead of punching it out? Whats the point in being 6"8 if you still flap at the ball ? His distribution was piss poor at times as well.

Jones (at RB 2nd half), Buckley, PVA, Rodwell all looked good. So did Alvarez for the short time he was on the pitch.

Gomez was ok and AJ did well with the service he had.

Bridcutt is an enigma. looked good occasionally and did some nice moves, but looked lost the rest of the time.

Vergini is an excellent player, need to get playing at CB so we can get Jones in at RB though as he doesnt have Jones' pace to break up the wing

O'shea same as normal, and Coates looked ok considering how little playing time he has had


He is out of his depth mate, alls well when he has time on the ball.
The slightest pressure and he becomes a liability.
When our forward play broke down he looked like he was struggling to get back into position.

I am not judging him off one game (not saying you are either like)

Last season he played well, brought other players into the game and created space for them. he just couldnt score goals. last night he scored a goal, but didnt play as well as normal.

Should be Pantimilion getting the stick after last night.

I was talking about Bridcutt mate. <ok>

As for Pants the reason he is getting off lightly is no one is trying to defend him when people are saying he is ****e. <rofl>
